-My collar, when complete and curved, consists of 'a cylindrical part and a coned part; paper-collars are Inade in the cylindrical form, and also coned; but I do not think a paper-collar has ever been made embracing both forms, unless the saine was produced by moldingor stretching.

My collar consists of two pieces of paper so formed that, when united, they take the desired forms withp out molding ors'tretching.

I claim as I nyinveution-` A paper-collar, when the same is made by uniting `to a straight neckband, A B, a curved check-piece, O
